silent49: What does GOG think of g2a? Anyone buy GOG keys off g2a? I'd never use them.
People have bought GOG keys from them and many have been revoked. G2A is basically a scam key reseller, as they don't seem to really care how the keys were obtained.
g2a

Normally I wouldn't be so harsh but a few months ago they sent a representative into this forum to tell us they never sell bogus codes and that they double check the origin and veracity of every code they resell. This reminded me of tobacco execs showing up on Capital Hill and telling everyone that nicotine isn't addictive. :P

I never bought anything from g2a
Never used it but I know some developers sell their keys there directly.

Still I wouldn't trust a company that is known for a ton of fraudelent keys.
I was watching Counter Strike tournament finale on twitch and the winning team was sponsored by g2a.com.

That company has got a lot of money from selling games so they can sponsor teams for gaming tournaments.

GOG games I buy from GOG. But what I have heard, they do have two branches let's say

One part were they sell legitimate keys and then a market place like thing were you buy keys from another person.

So the first shall be OK, but the second one see posts above. And what I have heard they must not be easy to distinguish Not sure if it is true though. Just citing some rumours I heard.

tinyE: g2a
So is there such a thing as poop models? I swear there must be because my shit never looks that good.
GOG isn't a big fan, but NES loves it.

Sick thing is, I Googled "shit" and a few hundred pictures like that popped up. Here I am thinking I have no life while all of these people are out there photographing their shit and then posting it on line! ;P

And yes, NES loves g2a:

So you're claiming that GOG runs some kind of secret officially sanctoned black market for their own keys. And your proof of this is?...
Don't use it for GOG keys; too much potential for hassle. Wait for an official GOG sale.

I don't know about Steam keys.

If you wanted to proof that you can not read, you succeeded.

Otherwise I suggest: read my post again, but this time sentence for sentence and slowly.

And just in case you do not understand certain words, I suggest the help of certain online tools, called dictionaries. But for you. those are rumours too, right?. Or you need proof for them as well?

Have a nice day

I don't know about Steam keys.
I think the person I bought Arkham Knight from on there (I was weak, and desperate) has used the same key to sell to others.

It's the only reason I can find as to why I've had two emails over a few months regarding 'account query by CD key'.

It's the only time I ever used them and I've felt dirty about it since.
edit: just removed it from my account since I forgot Steam lets you do that. See if that stops the emails.
